My mother's SON-IN-LAW

Chapter 37: SHE\'S, ... INTERESTING.

IN THE KITCHEN:

"Spit it out Eddy, I know you very well, so you better start squealing right now." Chris placed a kitchen knife on Edward\'s neck and continued with, "tell me why you brought this man with the surname \'Walter\' into my sister\'s life. Tell me now or little Ally won\'t have her precious Eddy next to her anymore."

Edward choked on the water he was drinking before he found himself being held captive with a knife on his neck. He was simply speechless.

Chris was going to such extents just because he brought a man he didn\'t know of. He took a deep breath and said, "You know Jenny-Mom will kill you if she sees what you have done. you can\'t just threaten me with a knife Chris, it\'s simply \'CRIMINAL!\'" he rolled his eyes at the shock on Chris\'s face and continued with, "Why don\'t you enjoy this Liam guy while he is in town. He might be exactly what Alicia needs you know."

Chris loosened up his hands a bit on Edward and said, "How about you focus your attention on Noah McMillian this time? He has always been a closed puzzle, even for me. So, you focus on him and let me handle Liam Walter for a while, okay?"

A FEW HOURS LATER:

"So, tell me, why did you bring me to a date suddenly Alicia? you have been trying to avoid me for the past few months haven\'t you?" James spoke as he kept a steady gaze on Alicia who simply stared at him blankly and continued with, "Don\'t tell me that this is another plan of yours to try and kidnap me?"

Alicia rolled her eyes subconsciously at James\'s words. and answered him with, "I know you wanted to work with me James, I know about your whole situation with your company debts, so let\'s just cut to the chase okay. I want to partner up with you in your company okay, I can pretty much salvage you from this situation you\'re in, but I need to be sure that I\'m not setting myself up here okay. So, tell me, can you guarantee this for me or not?"

James looked at Alicia speechlessly for a few moments until he sighed audibly and answered her with, "Yes, I can guarantee that for you."
